god still wants me to eat.
i wanted to blog about this as soon as i got hame yesterday but didnt have a chance! but anywho let me paint the picture..
i know i am known for “accidentally” leaving my wallet when i attend events that call for exchange of money, and i admit there have been times when i do, but i have honestly been working on it and thought i almost had it conquered. until yesterday… i seriously left my wallet in my truck yesterday morning when i went to work. honest mistake, i really didnt mean to, because ive been through the whole thing with wayne and him paying for my lunch and it wasnt pretty,
now, before i continue… i learned literally the night before that i have to quit worrying about the small things and look at the bigger picture that is ‘God’. that when i take my eye off of the ‘whole’ picture and begin to look at the small, miniscule things then i cant be what i am supposed to be because im not avaliable to be used by Him for the benefit of others for his kingdom, because im preoccupied with what im doing. with that said i also believe that we can miss opportunities of God moving in our own lives of because we are taking matters into our own hands… (now back to the story)
i realize that i dont have my wallet when we get to the job, because i always take it out and put it in the truck so i dont get pick-pocketted while on the work trail. (j/k) but anywho, the whole morning im going through the schpiele (sp) in my head for when we go to lunch of how i either: #1- ate a big breakfast with my grandpa, and im not that hungry, (knowing good and well i was starving) #2- i thought we would be done before lunch, so i didnt even bring money for lunch, so i just wont eat, or my least fav option #3- i forgot my wallet, do u mind picking up the ticket and just take it out of my check for this week? this is honestly what is going through my head. well we get to lunchtime-ish, and i think im going to get out of it, because we are done. what i forgot to tell you is that we were working at none other than Dwight Durbin’s house, and what does he do? invite us to lunch… dot dot dot… CRAP!
needless to say we went to Larry’s Sub’s, but we are in line, and not having to give an explanation yet, i sorta stand back and try to just sit down and not order. well dwight told me to cut him cause he’s “got it”, my heart just sank. i was like thank you God!!! i was so blessed, but at the same time i was like, “blake you suck!!! something so tiny and small as eating lunch God still showed me He is in control of my life. i was blown away!!
